Russia Collusion Scandal (aka A Leftist fantasy)

the senate will never convict...the smart play by the Dems is to Benghazi Trump...they have a lot of material to work with...a yuge amount...it will take months of hearings...he will be assimilated

Who will they question when the WH won't allow anyone to testify? But I think they should do it anyway. They could make cardboard cutouts for the cameras and read aloud all their lies. It would make great TV.

These assertions of executive privilege are pretty dubious. They should be fully litigated.

Erin Conroy Retweeted Elizabeth Warren

JFC. @ewarren said it A MONTH AGO.

Why should we be impressed with Justin Amash

when it took him A MONTH to do what

#Warren did in A DAY?

She treated this as a matter of urgency.

#WhiteMaleMediocrity seems to impress

more than female brilliance.

The severity of this misconduct demands that elected officials in both parties set aside political considerations and do their constitutional duty. That means the House should initiate impeachment proceedings against the President of the United States.

Easy for Warren to say. Took a lot of political courage for Amash to say. A distinction worth keeping in mind.
 
" peer pressure "

aren't we (he) a little old for that ?
suppose he made this statement in April !!
all the same credit where credit is due,

curious what he does going forward, ala put your money where your mouth is
Which is something he has been so... so much like Ben Sasse.
Says the controversial ( popular ? ) yet when the vote comes or time to stand up he has been absent, towing the party line.

hope this is a change
For many reasons --- After AOC became a brand, I opined the two of them would eventually work together to craft legislation.

They should proceed as with impeachment hearings and lay everything out on the table regardless of what Republicans do. If Republucand want to show the American people how little they respect the rule of law in the middle of the 2020 campaign that's fine by me.

It is poorly remembered but when Howard Baker asked his famous question about what Nixon knew and when he was acting as one of Nixon's defenders. There has been a certain amount of historical revisionism that allowed Baker to be recast as an early Nixon critic. He was not.

The outstanding skill that most politicians have is the ability to discern which way the wind is blowing. If the Dems want more Republicans to join Amash they have to turn that breeze into a gale.

that seems to be the line of attack the twitterbots are pushing

personally i think Justin has TDS

Nah - He is just interested in ensuring his company isn't hammered by tariffs. Thats why I smirk at the perception that his stance is 'principled'.
 
Interesting.

Can we talk about Trump's business interests as well, especially during his time in the white house

Lets discuss - I have no issues with that.

As I've noted - Lets not pretend that Amash has taken the baton on recapturing the republic based on his love for the institutions.
 
since yesterday have been honestly curious to your thoughts on Amash's statements.

You have been adament standing on the other side, does this makes you wonder ?

I've been adament about no collusion and Mueller/Amash don't dispute that.

With regards to obstruction, I don't have much of an opinion but trust Amash. As I've said, if the Dems think there is evidence to impeach, they should impeach. If not, quit obsessing about it and move on.
